Tree Lilac
A traditional shrub in tree form.
The Tree Lilac (Syringa reticulata 'Ivory Silk') is also called the Ivory Silk Japanese Tree Lilac. The Lilac is a much loved, traditional shrub now available in tree form.
Perfect for small yards or as a focal point, the Tree Lilac can withstand temperatures as low as 30 degrees below zero. It is the hardiest and most trouble free Lilac available.
The Tree Lilac blooms more heavily than other Lilac varieties. It also flowers later in the season, extending your Lilac pleasure. You will be delighted to see large plumes of small white flowers smother its branches in early summer.
The creamy white fragrant blooms arranged in clusters up to 12 inches long rising above the dark green foliage are sure to be a show stopper. This dazzling small scale tree is certain to be a favorite in your yard.
Through the summer your Tree Lilac will be densely covered in beautiful, deep emerald green leaves, a refreshing sight in the height of summer heat.
In the fall and winter the attractive, smooth dark red bark adds an interesting dimension and texture to your landscape.
